Appeal following collision involving 4x4 and motorcycle in Falmouth

We are appealing for witnesses and relevant footage following a road traffic collision involving a blue Ford Ranger 4x4 and a white 50CC motorcycle in Falmouth.

We were called at 8.35am on Wednesday 17 December following the collision on the roundabout connecting North Road, Falmouth Road and Dracaena Avenue next to the town’s McDonald’s restaurant.

As a result of the collision, a 16-year-old motorcyclist from the Redruth area sustained serious injuries and was taken to hospital. His next of kin are aware.

A man in his 30s from Falmouth was arrested on suspicion of driving whilst under the influence of a controlled drug. He has been released under investigation.

Anyone with any information or dash-cam footage which may assist the investigation is asked to contact police via our website or by calling 101 quoting log number 129 of 17 December.
